Assassin in the rope bridge room? What

Afaik if you tell her she goes where you killed Horace and goes Hollow

But basically the quest is about getting rid of Horace and talking to Anri as much as possible while keeping her in the dark

Well when it said 'Tell her about Smouldering Lake' or 'Tell her nothing', I told her about smouldering lake. The guide said that she would be sad and go make a gravestone for him. But instead she thanked me for telling her where Horace was. What? I thought 'telling her about smouldering lake' was telling her that I KILLED the fucker. She was in the church of yorshka afterwards so she definitely didn't go down there and go hollow.

Do you know of even one guide that is correct? If so, can you please share it with me?

Quote from Serris:

One of the video guides said that the guy holding the huge blade that you can see across the rope-bridge chasm could not be killed before you talk to anri in that room or else you have to tell her about horace. He referred to the blade-holding guy as 'assassin' and pointed him out.

I dunno, I just learned how to do the questline back then, but if I write it out from memory I'll probably miss stuff

If she's in the church now it might've worked, but maybe she can still go back to Horace? I don't know a lot about all the different quest fail states

I have no idea what that guy is on about lol

This is from fextralife:
"Enter the Smouldering Lake and kill Horace in the cave.
To find the cave, hug the right wall when entering the lake.
Find Anri on the path near the wooden bridge before the High Lord Wolnir boss. Exhaust all dialogue.
-If you killed Horace beforehand, choose dialogue option "Tell Anri of Smouldering Lake" will have Anri setting up a gravestone for Horace.
-Otherwise, choose "say nothing", if Horace was Alive and Anri headed to Smouldering Lake, Anri will be found dead."

Is that not confusing af?

Serris

I guess it means that both dialogues are okay as long as Horace is dead

Looks fine at a glance

For someone who just wants to get to the ending it's pretty needless to include that "setting up a gravestone" bit

You just tell her no at all times and kill Horace

Opium

The reason it confuses me is because they earlier said to never ever mention Horace at all, then they offer you the option of doing just that. What?

Adding too much information is probably the most confusing part about these guides. Much of this stuff either isn't even true, or is irrelevant, etc. I wish there was one that was just straight and to the point.

Serris

Yeah it's probably not a cohesive guide from one person, it's 1000 people editing bits and pieces over months

Opium

And on Fextralife, they tell you what to do in two different places, and they're completely different. I swear they were just jotted down by two different random people who would probably argue about it if they read each other's instructions.

This is one of the video guides. He says not to kill the guy in the rope-bridge room (lol). And he never says to go to the church of yorshka either.

Serris

2017-12-02 11:46:41 pm

Looking at the comments for 5 seconds the guy probably didn't even play the game, so there ya go lol

Well yuria says my bride is waiting for me so I think it's going to work. I headed to the darkmoon tomb but forgot that you have to play that area in offline mode. I got invaded by three people at once and they all three mowed me down at the same time, killing me in about 0.1 seconds, then doing all kinds of gestures as if they had something to brag about. Why is this area so completely crazy with invaders and how can so many come at once?

Serris

2017-12-03 12:55:29 am

The empty platform just outside the Sulyvahn room is the dueling hotspot, so it's also where people invade

Opium

2017-12-03 12:56:19 am

but these aren't duels. They are gangs. It's not even a brawl, because they're all after me and me only.

Serris

2017-12-03 12:57:43 am

Again, this is where people set up duels, so it's the spot with the most multiplayer activity, so it's also where people go to invade because they're much more likely to find a target

Opium

2017-12-03 01:08:15 am

The gangs are the aldritch faithful. I thought that if I activated my aldritch faitful covenant that it would prevent them from invading, except it made ME the invader. Strangely, they still all attacked me. WTF? So then I tried a 4th time, this time w/o being in the aldritch faithful covenant, and again i was invaded by 3 people simultaneously. This part is not possible in online mode.

What do they earn for hacking people down over and over and preventing them from advancing in pve?

Serris

2017-12-03 01:09:55 am

Covenant items, self esteem, etc

Opium

2017-12-03 01:11:49 am

Idiots. I have all covenant rewards from that covenant and I never invaded people.

Serris

2017-12-03 01:12:34 am

But you're also not a kid with nothing better to do

Opium

2017-12-03 01:16:58 am

It would be nice if there was a timer like for other types of invasions. Before this part, I've killed every single invader on this playthrough. But three at once is just bullshit. I've love to take those kids on one on one.

Serris

2017-12-03 01:18:02 am

That'd probably defeat the purpose on their end

Opium

2017-12-03 01:51:06 am

If someone wants to help me get more vertebra shackles some time I would really appreciate it
